Guests at the treehouse...

Emma and her friends agree that studying for algebra is much more tolerable when done in the treehouse.

We also have a new resident
at our treehouse.

Chris surprised me with him when we
went to Frankenmuth.

I think he likes his new dwelling.

And in case you missed it last year,
my special friend Lee from Small Enchantments
gave us this sweet fairy door for our treehouse.

PS. I can't take any credit for these photos.
I'm still limited in putting weight on my left foot.
Chris has been my outdoor photographer lately.
Thank you, honey!

    Your little owl is adorable. I still love the tiny little door. That would have fascinated me as a little girl. Chris is handling his new photography duties well!

    The owl looks like he belongs there!
    Great pictures~I hope you are being good and dreaming instead of doing...but somehow I find it hard to imagine you sitting still!
    I have a new fairy door~I should share it when I am home from another adventure.
    Take care!

    How I wish I had a treehouse!! And your owl in a hammock is just as sweet as can be! I am working on a fairy garden under my dogwood tree. I love that door!

    Blessings

    I love the fairy door! I think that touch of whimsy is so cute. Your girls must love the tree house so much! Glad you are able to put a little weight on your foot. That's progress.

    Your new little owl is so cute! And I bet he loves his new home. It is so nice that the girls use the treehouse for so many activities...their own wonderful retreat ~ so much fun! Hope they keep an eye out for the fairys.

    If you haven't discovered Becky Kelly's art, you should have a look. She has adorable little girls and fairies galore. One of her 'regulars' is a little almond eyed angel found in many of her drawings. I wrote to her when I gave my two daughters her book Sisters, one girl is Caucasian, the other Asian, just like ours!

    Oh! Your girls are so lucky to have that tree house! I think I would have spent hours reading and daydreaming in there when I was little, if I could have.
    Love the owl!
    Hope your foot is feeling a bit better.

    I very much agree...this is by far the best place for a study session. Darling owl, he knows you well. How is your Frakenfoot? Smiles...Renee

    I'm thinking there are a lot of things that would be more fun when in the treehouse. I'm sure I would enjoy grading papers more if i could do it in there. Have a great weekend. Hope your foot is feeling a little better everyday.

    FUN!! I bet studying in a tree house would have helped me when I was studying algebra! (Ok, probably not... math just isn't my forte.)
    Your fairy door and resident wise owl add even more charm to the sweetest address on the planet.

    Hi Kim,
    when I saw the title of your post, I thought "oh no! I hope she didn't try and climb that ladder in a cast!!" So relieved to hear that you didn't:) Looks like the tree house makes a great study hall. Love that sweet little owl! Hope you have been resting and are on the mend!

    If we lived closer, we could melt into the outdoor chairs I just painted and admire your treehouse while you put up your game leg and I prop my puffy ones. I'll have a Mockarita, you can have a little Jose'.

    The owl is so cute and a hubby that is willing to help with your blog post and take the photos. That's a home run!
